Screen issues, wont quit, cross hair dissappears

[Anonymous]

Good morning Forum:

I have been having issues since I have purchased my license for AutoCad LT for Mac 15. As many of us I am pateintly waiting for Revit for Mac.

So my issues will be below. My current Mac (s) I have Is a brand new

Macbook Pro 13" 

2.5 GHz Intel Core i5

4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB

iMac 21"

details to be posted later.

same issues arrive in both Macs though

1) Whenever I close AutoCad, it never closes, I have to Force Quit it and then reopen it asks about recovered file, etc.

2) My mouse arrow or cross hair disappears from time to time, I have to minimize the window reopen and its fine. When I move my screen around with the track pad, it pans then switches to zoom. If I minimize the window and reopen and then save the file, it works properly.

3) When I swipe to a different screen or desktop, in the middle of my screen my display gets distorted and acts slow, the graphics arent as smooth.

The macbook has been tested and diagonosed at Apple and everythingmeets the requirements and comes back with no problems.

I have reinstalled the program to patch or repair any issues that it may have, but no solution has been found. Please advise me what I am doing wrong or how to fix this. I am getting ready to purchase another Mac, and need to know what to purchase based on system requirements if any.

Thank you in advance for everyones input and knowledge.

Trackpad pan - zoom swap is also knowing issue (bug) and it doesn't depend on hardware. I think the same about "disappearing" crosshairs.

Not sure about your iMac, but seems Macbook Pro 13" with 4Gb of RAM and  Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB is not powerful enough for AutoCAD for Mac, especially if you have large drawings and you run a lot of other applications on your Mac simultaneously.
